In a press statement, the shows' resident choreographer Chris Piper commented, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory remains one of the most popular and successful musicals in the West End. This is a brilliant opportunity for performers to appear onstage as an Oompa-Loompa, one of Dahl's most recognisable characters. We're searching for dancers with exceptional technical and performance skills who can embody their cheeky personality and entertain our audiences night after night."
